INTRODUCTION

The AM/II is designed for a broad range of access control applications. Its wireless design with the proven MegaCode radio format, the Wiegand and RS-232 interfaces, make it easily adaptable for virtually any access control requirement. The AM/II contains a high-gain superheterodyne UHF receiver. When used with an external antenna, signals can be received from up to 200 feet away. Two lockable metal enclosures are available to house the AM/II.

Four dry contact relay outputs are provided to activate four access devices, such as door strikes, barrier gates, automatic sliding gates and automatic doors. The relay outputs can also be used for alarm contact shunting, operator obstacle triggering, and alarm activation. Two open request pushbutton inputs are supplied for hardwire activation of the access devices. Two door sense inputs allow detection of propped open doors.

The AM/II has an RS-232 interface (bi-directional). The system can be linked to a printer or personal computer. The event log feature, for example, makes it possible to keep track of how many employees are on premises, which employees are present, and when they clock in and out. With connection to a personal computer, the AM/II can be programmed locally or remotely through the telephone system with standard Hayes compatible modems. System reports can be printed or captured from the RS-232 port.

T h e W i e g a n d i n t e r f a c e i s f o r c o n n e c t i o n t o o t h e r manufacturer’s access control systems. The AM/II can act as a wireless receiver for an existing access control system. When interconnected to a Sentex Infinity system, the AM/II can simulate two Sentex card readers, receiving signals from thousands of transmitters. The AM/II also supports the industry standard Wiegand26 and Securakey31 data formats for connecting to other access control panels.

Up to eight AM/II’s can be networked together allowing information sharing between the units. A common event log is retained for all of the networked units.

Four different size memory modules are available. The small, medium, large and x-large modules allow tailoring the system to meet the requirements of the installation. The larger the memory module, the more transmitter ID codes and logged events can be stored.

Additional remote accessory devices can be connected to the AM/II. A rugged, die cast, weatherproof keypad (AM-KP) for manual input of entry codes. A card reader interface (AM-CRI) can connect to one or two card readers. A proximity receiver (AM-RPR) provides ultra-short range radio reception for transmitters. A remote radio receiver (AM-RRR) can be used to extend the reception capabilities of the AM/II. Up to six remote accessory devices can be used with each AM/II unit.

AM/II CONTROL

(9)

➀

AM/II CONTROL

The AM/II is a microprocessor based, world class access control system with a built-in superheterodyne radio receiver. The microprocessor runs the entire system, granting access, performing system “housekeeping” functions, displaying information, reading inputs and controlling outputs. Programming information and event logs are stored in the removable memory module. The soft touch silicone keypad and numeric keys are used for data entry. The plug-in terminal blocks connect to access devices, power, remote devices and sensing inputs. The RS-232 port connects to external computer equipment for event logging and system programming.

➁

RADIO TRANSMITTERS

Many models of transmitters can be used with the AM/II. Some are individually coded, others are coded in blocks of numbers. Both code types will appear to function the same to the end users. The users will activate their transmitter to attempt to gain access. When the transmitted signal is detected by an AM/II receiver, the control decides if the user is currently allowed access. If the programming in the AM/II determines that the user can have access at that time, the programmed output relay will activate. Model MGT gate obstacle transmitters can also send signals to the AM/II.

➂

EXTERNAL ANTENNA

The AM/II control has a type “F” antenna connector. The external antenna is connected with co-ax cable to the connector. A Model EXA-1000 (omni-directional), or Model EXA-2000 (directional) antenna is used to receive signals from the user’s transmitters. The radio gain control knob can be used to custom tailor the reception area to the installation.

➃

ACCESS DEVICES

The access devices wired to the relay terminals control specific access portals. When a user is granted access by the AM/II the access device activates (usually for a timed period).

➄

OPEN REQUEST AND DOOR SENSE

INPUTS

The open request inputs wire to pushbuttons or knox boxes so that users can activate access devices without needing their card code or transmitter. Open request pushbuttons are usually next to the controlled portal inside the controlled area. Door sense inputs are wired to normally closed magnetic or mechanical switches attached to the door.

➅

REMOTE DEVICES

The remote devices communicate with the AM/II through a common electrical buss. Each device is set to a unique device address so the AM/II can recognize each unit as an individual. Currently available remote devices include entry keypads, remote radio receivers, radio proximity receivers and card reader interfaces.

➆

EXTERNAL ACCESS CONTROL

Access control panels from other manufacturers can be connected to the AM/II. The AM/II can serve as a remote device for the external panel. The external panel can validate the data coming from the AM/II and perform its own access functions.

➇

NETWORKED UNITS

Up to eight AM/II’s can be networked together to function in unison. Each AM/II functions as an independent unit, but programming and event logging is shared between all units. Cards, codes and transmitters can be programmed to activate a specific AM/II unit.

WIRELESS INSTALLATION TIPS

Signals Through Construction Materials

When installing any wireless system, certain limitations must be considered. Low power wireless UHF transmitter signals will not broadcast equally through all types of construction materials. The AM/II contains a receiver that should allow reception of the transmitters in almost all locations. Refer to figure showing approximate signal strength that will occur with different types of building materials.

Transmitters in Vehicles

The radio range of a transmitter will also be affected when the transmitter is located in a vehicle. Depending on the location of the transmitter (on the visor, on the dash, in the center console) the range will vary. Most of the signal strength changes are related to the amount of metal in close proximity to the transmitter. If a transmitter is clipped to the top of the driver’s sun visor, with the visor flipped up, placing the transmitter between the metal roof and the metal reinforced visor, the transmitters range will be reduced.

PRE-INSTALLATION

Unpacking the System

The basic AM/II system package includes the following accessories:

✶ Plug-in Transformer. Provides low voltage power to the access control panel.

✶ Mounting Screws. Used to mount the AM/II inside the cabinet.

Installing the Memory Module

Four sizes of memory modules are available for the AM/II:

✶ SMALL (16K) MEMORY

✶ MEDIUM (64K) MEMORY

✶ LARGE (128K) MEMORY

✶ X-LARGE (256K) MEMORY

One of the memory modules must be installed for the AM/II to function.

✘ CAUTION! Be sure the AM/II is disconnected from power or that the AM/II’s POWER switch is off before removing of replacing the memory module.

STEP 1 With the system power off, plug the memory module

into the AM/II.

STEP 2 Secure the memory module with two screws.

MOUNT UNIT

The AM/II can be mounted indoors directly to a wall or in the Model CAB-1 indoor cabinet. For outdoor mounting, the Model CAB-2 weather resistant cabinet is recommended. The two cabinets both provide some security for the unit.

Each cabinet has wiring knockouts for connection to wiring conduit.

STEP 1 Decide on a good location (near power and good

wiring access) to mount the AM/II. It should be in a secure location. The mounting area should be b e t w e e n - 2 2 a n d + 1 4 9 d e g r e e s Fahrenheit year-around.

STEP 2 If a cabinet is used, punch out the conduit knockouts

as required for the installation. Attach the cabinet to the wall with the appropriate fasteners.

STEP 3 Secure the AM/II with three screws.

DIRECT MOUNTING

FOR INDOOR INSTALLATIONS THE AM/II CAN BE MOUNTED DIRECTLY USING THREE SCREWS AND APPROPRIATE SCREW ANCHORS

DRIVE FOUR SCREWS INTO WALL AT THESE LOCATIONS (LEAVE SCREW HEAD 1/8" OUT FROM WALL)

EARTH GROUND & POWER CONNECTIONS

Earth Ground

For the best ground, use size 14 gauge solid wire or larger to connect the EARTH GROUND terminal to an 8-foot copper ground rod. Locate the ground rod next to the Power and Telephone company rods and bond the rods together with a new clamp. Do not disturb the clamps installed by the

Power or Telephone Company.

Alternately, connect the EARTH GROUND terminal to a cold water pipe or to the GND terminal on the AC transformer.

Power

The AM/II is powered by a 16.5 Volt, 20 VA to 50 VA, internally fused, UL listed, Class 2 transformer. This transformer is included with the AM/II system pack.

The system can alternately be powered from a 12-35 VDC or 14-24 VAC auxiliary power supply. Refer to the chart below for selecting wire size for the distance to the power source. Typically DC power is used when battery backed-up uninterruptable operation is required. The externally charged battery must be capable of supplying the power requirements of the AM/II and it’s complement of devices.

✘ WARNING! Never short the terminals of the transformer together. This will cause the internal fuse to blow. The transformer must be connected to a 120 VAC 60 Hz unswitched (24 hour) power outlet not controlled by a wall switch.

STEP 1 Be sure that the AM/II POWER switch is off. STEP 2 Connect the transformer to the AC terminals or

connect the AM/II to the operator’s auxiliary power output.

✘ WARNING! Do not connect both AC and DC power.

STEP 3 If used, plug transformer into AC outlet and secure

with case screw (if provided).

☞NOTE: Never power door strikes or other high current

magnetic devices from the same power source as the AM/II.

CARD READER INTERFACE

The Model AM-CRI card reader interface can support two card readers. It would be located between the card readers and the AM/II, usually near the card readers.

The card reader is connected to the READER IN terminals on the AM/II. Follow the instructions supplied with the keypad and the hook-up diagram.

Two rotary switches in the unit selects the device address for each card reader. They must be set to different numbers from 1-6, and also be different from any other remote accessory device.

CONTROL INPUTS

Open Request

The open request terminals for relays A & B are available for connection to an external switch. When the switch closes to ground, if the relay channel is not locked closed, the relay will activate.

Common uses would be with a knox box, pushbutton, or key lock where someone would need to open the access portal from inside the controlled area.

Door Sense

The door sense terminals for relays A & B are used with normally closed door contacts. The contacts monitor the position of the access door. When the door opens, the contacts open.

Door sensing is required to use the door ajar and door relock features. Door sensing can detect when a door is propped open and cause an alarm relay to activate when the door is open longer than the door ajar time. Door sensing also detects when the door is closed, deactivating the control relay the moment the door closes.

RELAY OUTPUT CONNECTIONS

The AM/II provides four relay outputs. Each relay has isolated, dry contact, Form “C” (N/O & N/C) contacts rated at 3 amps 30 volts maximum.

Relay Operation Options

Relays can be programmed for access control, alarm contact shunting, alarm triggering, obstacle triggering and CCTV triggering. Relay wiring method depends on the option selected and the type of device controlled.

Control Relay Option

Relays programmed with the control option will activate when access is granted to access media. Relays set with the control option would be connected to access devices (door strikes, mag-locks, automatic operators, etc.).

☞NOTE: Relay channels “A” & “B” are always set as control relays.

Shunt Relay Option

Relay channels “C” & “D” can be programmed for shunt operation. A shunt relay would be wired across a set of alarm contacts, shunting their operation, preventing the alarm from triggering when genuine access is granted. If the door or gate is forced open, without having access granted by the AM/II, the alarm would be triggered.

When programmed for shunt operation, relay channel “C” will mirror the activation of relay channel “A”. Relay channel “D” will mirror the activation of relay channel “B”.

Alarm Relay Option

Relay channels “C” & “D” can be programmed for alarm operation. An alarm relay would be wired to a noisemaker or to the loop input of an alarm control panel.

Relay channel “C” can function as an alarm relay for relay channel “A”. Relay channel “D” can function as an alarm relay for relay channel “B”. The door sense input must be wired for relay channel “A” and/or “B” for the alarm relay function to work. If door “A” or “B” is held open longer than the Door Ajar Time time programmed, the alarm relay for the appropriate relay channel will activate.

Obstacle Relay Option

Relay channels “C” & “D” can function as obstacle relays when Model MGT obstacle transmitters are used. Relay channel “C” activates for MGT obstacle transmitter #1, relay channel “D” activates for MGT obstacle transmitter #2.

Obstacle relays are used to trigger obstacle inputs on automatic door and gate operators. Triggering the obstacle input will reverse or stop the operator.

CCTV Relay Option

Relay channels “C” & “D” can function as CCTV relays. They can be used only when a Model AE-1 or AE-2 telephone entry module is installed with the AM/II.

When a telephone connection is made to a directory party, they can press the “5" digit on their telephone to activate the CCTV relay. A CCTV camera would activate to send a picture of the entry area to the directory party.

RS-232 PORT CONNECTIONS

The AM/II RS-232 port can be used to connect to a serial input line printer, a personal computer, modem or data terminal.

Printer Connections

☞NOTE: The installation of a printer is optional. The AM/II may be used without a printer if activity logging is not required.

The AM/II can connect to virtually any standard personal computer printer that accepts a 9600 baud serial RS-232 input. Connecting a printer to the AM/II allows for a printed copy of each transmitter activation showing the transmitter number, time and date of activation as well as the various system reports. Use the Model A2P cable to connect the AM/II to a

printer.

Personal computer printers contain switches for setting the printer’s data format and options. The printer’s switches must be set correctly to match the output of the AM/II before the printer will function properly. Refer to the specific printer’s instruction manual for the location and possible settings of the printer’s switches.

The printer may have additional options that may or may not be useful with the AM/II.

The printer options that must be set are:

✶ Baud Rate 9600

✶ 8 Data Bits

✶ No Parity

✶ 1 Stop Bit

✶ No Auto Line Feed after Carriage Return

Personal Computer and Data Terminal Connections

☞NOTE: The installation of a personal computer (PC) or data terminal for event logging and system programming is optional, but recommended. Programming the AM/II is much easier, especially when using names, with a PC or data terminal.

The AM/II can connect to virtually any PC’s serial port. Use the Model A2C-DB25 (25-pin) or A2C-DB9 (9-pin) cable to connect the AM/II to a computer.

When using a data terminal, connecting the cable and setting the terminal port options is all that’s required. When using a PC, a communications program (AccessBase, Account Manager, Windows Terminal, Procomm, Quick Link, BitComm, etc.) must be used to communicate with the AM/II. The computer’s software will have settings for the PC’s port options. The software port options must be set correctly to

match the output of the AM/II before the PC software will function properly. Refer to the specific software’s instructions

for details on how to set the port options.

The serial port (COM port) options that must be set are:

✶ Baud Rate 9600

✶ 8 Data Bits

✶ No Parity

✶ 1 Stop Bit

✶ X-ON/X-OFF Data Flow Control

Setting the AM/II RS-232 port output to the “PRINTER” option will show the ongoing event log on the computer screen. Setting the AM/II RS-232 port output to the “TERMINAL” option will allow the computer to access the AM/II just like the keyboard on the AM/II. The only keyboard differences when using a PC or terminal to access the AM/II are:

✶ The ENTER key equals the AM/II’s OK key.

✶ The ESCAPE (Esc) key is similar the AM/II’s * (star) key. Press ESCAPE twice to enter program mode, once to jump back to the main menu.

✶ The A-Z & 0-9 keys are used for character inputs.

✶ Hold the CONTROL (Ctrl) key and press “Z” to exit programming.

Modem Connections

☞NOTE: The installation of a modem is optional. It will allow remote programming of the AM/II.

The AM/II can connect to most personal computer external modems. Use the Model A2M cable to connect the AM/II to a modem. Connection to a modem allows you to call the AM/II over the telephone with a personal computer and another modem. All of the same programming functions that can be performed locally can be made remotely, off-site. System reports and the event log can be retrieved remotely.
